It has been foretold that the world as you know it will end in 2012…
London is falling! Are YOU prepared?

For the second time in history, a great plague has descended upon
London, infecting the human race with a deadly disease. Big Ben tolls as
hundreds upon thousands of the unprepared die or are infected by a
sickness worse than death...

You are still breathing, for now. But how long will you survive in the
labyrinth of London streets and underground as the infected close in
around you? The horrifying remains of humanity ravaged by the foul
disease shuffle through the streets, waiting to prey on your living
flesh at every turn!

ZombiU™ is designed to take advantage of the Wii U and its revolutionary
new controller and will test your will to survive in a zombie
Survival-Horror First Person Shooter. So grab hold of the height of
survival kits – your new controller – and stock up your Bug-Out Bag with
supplies! Make every second count; you only get one chance.

STAY HUMAN, WE ARE A DYING BREED.

TWO SCREENS, TWICE THE FEAR – Feel the tension mount as you try
to keep an eye on your TV and Wii U GamePad screen.

SURVIVAL-HORROR AT ITS BEST – Resources are in short supply
whilst the number of enemies continues to grow; you never know when you
will find more weapons, ammunition, first aid and food. Use them wisely!

UNIQUE DEATH MECHANIC – If you die, you’ll take on the role of an
entirely new character; another terrified soul struggling to survive.
Your first task will be to recover your old BOB, but beware; it will
still be worn by the last character you played… who is now a zombie!

HORDE AT YOUR DOOR – Prepare yourself for the inevitable
onslaught. Stock up on guns, ammo and supplies, and lock down your Safe
House. It’s time to defend your home against the ravenous, infected
horde!

SURVIVORS VS. ZOMBIES – An adversarial multiplayer mode where one
player takes over the role of Zombie Master (top-down view) to spawn
enemies and springs traps with a simple touch on the GamePad, while a
second player (first-person view) fights for survival with the Classic
Controller!

MERCY KILLER – When your character gets infected, your online
friends are alerted of your death and can come and hunt down your
zombified character to loot the gear in your BOB and put you out of your
misery!

BASED IN LONDON – A city steeped in grisly history, royal secrets
and bloody tales, where the medieval fortress of the Tower of London and
the stately Buckingham Palace contrast with the modernity of the world’s
most cosmopolitan city!
